Scyllas

Scyllas (died 480 BC) was an Athenian admiral during the Greco-Persian Wars. He was an old friend of Themistocles and was the father of Calisto, and, in 480 BC, he was sent to spy on the Persian admiral Artemisia I of Caria, discovering that she was an ethnic Greek. He fought at the Battle of Artemisium alongside his friend and his son, and he was mortally wounded when both the Persian and Greek main ships exploded next to each other.
